For the frst one is: 63 cm^2


A_(F1)=\text{ 9cm}\cdot7\operatorname{cm}=63cm^2

For the second figure we have that the area is: 136cm^2


\begin{gathered} A_(F2)=2\cdot(6.8cm)(10cm) \\ =2(68cm^2)\text{ = 136}cm^2 \end{gathered}

And for the third one, the area is: 84cm^2


\frac{(15cm\text{ + 13cm)}\cdot6\operatorname{cm}}{2}=\frac{28\operatorname{cm}\cdot6\operatorname{cm}}{2}=\frac{168\operatorname{cm}^2}{2}=84\operatorname{cm}
